Demo v1.1, XBox 360 Controller & FFB

[Guest Jock in a Frock]

Hi, downloaded the demo v1.1 & really enjoying it. Couple of problems though....

I am using a wired XBox controller and it works pretty well. However can I turn of the FFB effects? Currently I get a slow rumble on turning left, and a fast buzz when turning right. Either I would like to rectify this or turn off FFB altogether.

Also, can I adjust the dead zone for steering? I can't find any way to do this in Settings. This leads to a little wander on track when on the straights due to a bit of loose play in the thumbstick.

Thanks in advance,

I haven't ever used anything else than my G25 wheel, but I guess you can do it simply lowering the FFGain in the setup of your car.

Also, can I adjust the dead zone for steering?

I had to install XBCD to achieve this, but the only problem was that Vista needs to be run in test mode to use unsigned drivers.

Thanks guys, I will try these suggestions this evening.

Ok setting all the FFB parameters to zero switched off the FFB completely, so sorted on that front.

Installed XBCD drivers & setup utility, and it made things much worse, couldn't set up brake & gas as separate axes within nkpro. I've gone back to native Windows 7 drivers and I can live with the small jitter in the dead zone.

Note to self: save up for a new wheel.
